Cognition and Visuality

Cognition and Visuality: Analysing Functions of Artistic Modelling is theoretical and partly practical introduction into the cognitive science related to art and its comprehension. Cognitive science is an interdisciplinary way of scientific thinking, which has its implications to the aesthetic theories. Cognitive science has its links with philosophy, and deals seriously with aesthetical questions because of the importance of mental processes and recognition in visual perception. Observation is important since it forms the basis of our spectatorship concerning both analysis and synthesis. Perception itself is a phenomenological process, since to see is to perform operations on visual materials.
